Re: [basex-talk] CLI issue with 8.0.1

Hi Marco,

I guess you run this as a shell command on a unix machine. $ is normally used for variables, so if you execute in from the shell directly, you might have to escape the dollar sign using , i.e. it would be

bin/basex -b$v=example "declare variable $v external; $v"

Hello all, I'm unable to execute the example from documentation:

bin/basex -b$v=example "declare variable $v external; $v"

IT gives this exception:

Stopped at ., 1/19: [XPST0003] Expecting '$', found 'e'.

Any clues? Regards, MArco.
